Site Construction began as an archive created of a particular edgeland, accidentally discovered and explored over a period of twelve months.

The first phase of the archive for Site Construction culminated in a combination of selected site photography and my intentionally illegible handwritten text projected onto found discarded carpet underlay, signifying a meeting of material and immaterial, of objective and subjective. The archive's first phase has been condensed and stored as a photo book.

The potential of this site as one that is unfixed and fluid - a living and evolving entity continued to be explored. The site has its own identity and is also constructed by an unseen group of unintentional artists. I felt it was important for me to not intervene here, but rather to listen and negotiate with the site and its other authors instead. Consequently for the second phase, my archive expanded into video: a collection of video clips from the site shortly after a storm. From this, an edited video montage combined with my voice-over of cut-out fragments of my hand-written reflections. The intention here is neither to create a documentary or a specific narrative – it is merely to have a conversation with the site.
